How can I get involved?

Ways to give

Giving is a powerful act that not only makes a difference in the lives of others, but also fills your heart with purpose and joy. Whether you’re giving your time, giving resources, or giving food, every contribution counts. Volunteering lets you connect with your community, while donations help support vital services and causes. When you give, you’re not just helping others—you’re enriching your own life too. Embrace the joy of giving and experience the positive ripple effect it creates.

Give funds

The GFA Pantry is committed to ensuring that no family in our community goes hungry. While food donations are always appreciated, monetary contributions are essential to keeping our shelves stocked and our services running. Your generosity gives us the flexibility to plan for the future, respond quickly to urgent needs, and purchase the right food items to best support those facing food insecurity.

Just $25 can provide a box of dry goods to sustain a family in need. Every dollar you give helps us reach more people, fill more plates, and bring hope to those who need it most. Join us in making a difference—donate today and be a part of the fight against food insecurity!

Give time

Volunteers are the heart and soul of our mission, and we truly couldn’t do it without you! Every week, we rely on the generosity of individuals and groups who donate their time to help serve families in need. On any given Tuesday, we’re able to support around 75 families—thanks to volunteers like you. We have multiple opportunities to volunteer each week, so there’s always a way to get involved!

Whether you're an individual looking to give back, a student in need of community service hours, or part of a group wanting to make an impact, we welcome you to get involved. Your time and effort can help us make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

Give food

At GFA Pantry, we are committed to ensuring no one in our community goes hungry. In 2024 alone, we provided groceries to over 4,000 households and distributed more than 137,000 pounds of food to those in need across Northwest Arkansas.

One of the easiest and most impactful ways to support our mission is by hosting a food drive. Whether you're a business, church, school, or community group, your efforts can make a real difference in keeping our guests fed.
